STUDENT-OPERATED CAMPUS ENTERPRISES

Student-Operated Enterprises represent an exciting component of Berry’s premier student work experience program. The program involves the development and ongoing operation of campus enterprises by student teams with a staff or faculty co-manager. These student-operated enterprises include
businesses distinct to Berry; however students are also creating new enterprises based on their own areas of interest. Currently, sixteen enterprises are up and running.
